Description：Flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) is a redox cofactor, more specifically a prosthetic group of a protein, involved in several important enzymatic reactions in metabolism.

In Vitro：Poly(Flavin adenine dinucleotide, FAD) characterized by an additional polymer-type redox reaction is a highly effective electrocatalyst for NADH oxidation: operating at the lowest potentials reported for NADH transducers (0.00 V, pH 7.4), poly(FAD) is characterized by the electrochemical rate constant of 1.8 ± 0.6×10-3 cm/s, which is at the level of the NADH mass-transfer constant. Poly(FAD)-modified electrodes are characterized by the dramatically improved stability and, is the most advantageous NADH transducers for analytical chemistry[2].

In Vivo：Flavin adenine dinucleotide (2 mg/kg, i.v.) significantly cancels chlorpromazine (CPZ)-induced decrease in ventricular fibrillation threshold (VFT). Flavin adenine dinucleotide cancels the effect of CPZ on canine heart mitochondria. After injection of Flavin adenine dinucleotide, the dogs show a transient hypotension within 10 min, then their blood pressures recover to the initial level. Flavin adenine dinucleotide also prevents mitochondrial dysfunction induced by chlorpromazine[1].

Animal Administration：Dogs[1] The dogs are divided into 3 groups and they are received the following treatments. Each group consists of 6 dogs. Dogs in group I as control, are given 2 mL/kg of physiological saline by intravenous injection. Ten min after the start of the first injection, another dose of saline, 1 mL/kg, is injected intravenously. Dogs in group II are given i.v. 2 mL saline/kg. Ten min afterwards, 1 mg chlorpromazine(CPZ)/kg is injected. Dogs in group III are given i.v. Flavin Adenin Dinucleotide, 2 mg/kg. Ten min later, they are given CPZ, 1 mg/kg. All solutions is administrated in 1 min or 2. Blood samples are taken before and 10, 20, 30, and 40 min after the intravenous injection of saline (groups I and II) or Flavin Adenin Dinucleotide (group III). Serum K+ and blood pH are also measured. Heart rate, blood pressure and ventricular fibrillation threshold (VFT) of each dog are recorded at the same intervals[1].
